Abstract

This is a description of a panel presentation on the subject of enabling renewable energy resources in power distribution systems. The main elements of the presentation relate to: control methods; fault current management; safety considerations; improvement of system reliability; energy management; and infrastructure issues. A discussion of multiobjective management is given, and a hierarchical control infrastructure is proposed for distribution systems with renewable resources.
